Car Virus
 
Thought Experiment:

An asteroid crashed on Earth and released a car virus that destroyed not just 911s but every other Porsche - none are left and no more will ever be built.

But you have plenty o'bucks and can buy any other car ever made, drive it, hotrod it, repair it, etc. Plenty of parts are available for all non-Porsches.


What do you get?

A Honda
Either a Civic Type R or a HR-V

A930Rocket 08-26-2021 04:58 PM

A Plymouth Satellite.

Does insurance cover alien car viruses?

Beck 904 with a subaru flat 6.

A car virus from an asteroid? The zombies are coming! I would get a MRAP.

Call Dr. Fauci...I’m sure a little paper mask will save the Porsches.

As all the porsches are beamed up to the mothership, defective bosch coils will certainly inflict damage in ways even the alien masterminds could not foresee.

A couple shots of nitrous would cure it.

Some say she's from Mars
Or one of the seven stars
That shinith after three-thirty in the morning

Well, she isn't!

ckelly78z 08-26-2021 05:41 PM

Of course a Bullitt Mustang !

Deschodt 08-26-2021 05:42 PM

E46 M3. What an engine. And unreliable enough to keep you busy.

914 with a Subie transplant.

You did say all Porsche's.;) It'll be good to have those Sixer posers gone, LOL.

If I walked out to the shop tomorrow and all that was there was my ‘65 VW I could live with that.

Well, she isn't!

She came from Planet Claire
I knew she came from there
She drove a Plymouth Satellite
A-faster than the speed of light
Planet Claire has pink air
All the trees are red
No one ever dies there
No one has a head
Some say she's from Mars
Or one of the seven stars that shine after three-thirty in the morning
Well, she isn't!
She came from Planet Claire
She came from Planet Claire
She came from Planet Claire

Saw the B52’s in the 80’s at the Fox Theater in Atlanta. Great show.

What would I get that’s not a Porsche? E39 M5. Maybe an unmolested E36 if I could find one. An RS4. If I had more money maybe an RS3, though I’d probably be ok with a Golf R… if I had more money, an R8, though used ones have come down. With even more money, a non-Gallardo Lamborghini. Ok fine, a Ferrari if I could afford it.

Some of the newer MacLarens aren’t bad either but still 6 figures…

fanaudical 08-26-2021 06:27 PM

I would go for a urS4...

Bill Douglas 08-26-2021 06:45 PM

Karmann Ghia cabriolet. I'd be VERY happy with that.

RWebb 08-26-2021 07:30 PM

2002
